Yes it is
I'll get back to you on that. I have to beat a trial to see the leaderboard... because game design
I'm fairly certain it was fixed this update
yea
Yes, leaderboards work.
Took a while, was struggling with the stage 1 overloading guys.
I GOT ETHEREAL FINALLY
it is possible. artifact of kin, both enemy types are melee only. second stage is beetles
they drop bombs and wisps on death, but they also do friendly fire. So, let them group up, get a kill, then run. the bombs cause a chain reaction and start killing each other
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
AYO NICE I might try this later actually
@empty rover
12 left
You scare me.
Also teach me your ways
Who else is doing it to get the merc achievement
Weirdly on switch the spawn point and items are different but that's the only difference
Lol, consoles moment
If you have enough time , I would recommend to just watch, if there is artifact of glass, it's much easier with x5 damage
I already got it
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover
Glass trial
I always wondered how cabbage reacts to the cabbage anime thing
¯_(ツ)_/¯
dang I forgot how challenging but fun prismatic trials can be.
so did most of the playerbase dont worry 
Wow, less than a minute, hell yeah mods!
how's this time?
its pretty good, there';s definetely a lot of time to save though
yes there was an update, no i didn't use any of the new items
i am the original mult main
my pathing is so bad
dw my strat was using saw on the 1st crystal for a solid 10min
I love how u need to no hit this on merc to get the good special
wait you can just saw the boss
man im equally stupid this is crazy
@empty rover
terrible s2
How do you know which survivor will be the fastest just curious
usually, the best survivors are loader and railgunner (because of their damage and mobility) for most of the trials. but it depends on the artifacts, stage, items, and crystal placements, allowing other survivors to be the fastest for some trials. for this trial, mul-t has access to equipment that allows it to kill bosses really fast because of enigma and a whip for s2.
is mult better than railgunner this trial?
mul-t is def more fun
railgunner should be able to match or be faster in s1. s2 is a different story without the gun. sooo id say its probably close between the two
thats because you have crossplay enabled
if your talking about the lack of names
if your talking ablut the quantity of mul-Ts partially, once one person actually tries to run usually others will follow, but most of the lower times are probably just because its the easiest character
That's what I was talking about, thx
just wait for meteor and win, don't need a second brooch i was just wasting time while waiting
thank you for this!! i got the achievement using your video as a guide :D
@empty rover
Is command blacklisted for artifacts you can have?
Ok
tilted hasn't been removing old pins......
Tilted caught lacking in 4k
tsk tsk tsk
55 is crazy, I did 2.51 with merc hitless :D
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover
Or am I not allowed to do that
its not an allow or disallow
the number is just my personal streak
of how many in a row I have done, consecutively
Didnt the trial just come out 🫥
ping me when a good glass prismatic shows up
dawg im ngl i dont think anyone is gonna remember to do that cuz it could be months before another easy one shows up
just check the channel every few days
if none show up in a fortnight im just cheating it in
LMAOO
ive already done it on my first savefile
just do it now then why wait two weeks
because this current one is cheeks
yeah and im not waiting 20 years to get a garbage achievement in funny chaotic video game
There's been like 3 glass trials recently
I got mine on one where chaos was enabled and there was a tricorn just time travel
@cyan stratus hehe funny number
yipiee i finally got merc's skill
Gg ig
Good job
How is your damage taken 4
glass artifact
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover
Oh that’s much easier than how I did it lol
@hushed walrus
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
Rip easy glass trial
@empty rover
At this point just give cabbage pin perms
you have to find and kill 3 crabs on the 2nd stage otherwise they can and will show up to hit you during the tp
happy holidays & merry christmas if you celebrate it. this trial is like a christmas present because it's easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover
Lmao the santa hat is awesome
Mery chrimuh
5 more
Everybody decorate the Christmas cabbage
fastest huntress today ?
this trial is easy since all you have to do is spend 7 lunar coins
i usually don't wanna spend coins, but the 2nd stage was pretty difficult without (very possible, but not too feasible for a newer player). this route anyone can do
@empty rover
People gonna have a blast with this seed definitely
@hushed walrus
thx, ill see if i can do that one today
.
wait, you posted this... this meme 596 times?
yes
if you add the numbers "025" to risk of rain 2 you get "risk of rain 2025" which is a pretty cool easter egg
@empty rover
sorry to make you work on your birthday
New Years Cabbage
When you get to 1000 the world ends
this trial gonna make me do things
i played very badly because tired but didn't get hit which is the important part
@empty rover
actually v proud of the time i got on this prismatic trial
i'm still trying to optimize but i'm not consistent enough in my actual skill for it to matter much
whats a prismatic trial
A side mode where you play 2 stages on a set seed with various artifacts and other unique differences to the main game
You should try em out theyre pretty fun
imagine fighting teleporter bosses
@empty rover
3 mroe days,,
how does the atg missile glitch work and can I do it on console
just stand exactly here and use missile launcher, and idk
next to the big dot on the ground
I completed this challenge for the first time ever today yippee
only have the last 5 mins of the run but that's fine first stage was just boring routing stuff, actually interesting to see yours going for the much more aggressive center crystals, I'd always get hit by the worm if I went for those but I was also going to newt altar so I'd have to stick around that area longer.
https://youtu.be/p5dlIKVSXDU (The ending reaction was because my friends told me this weeks prismatic trial was impossible damageless)
(My general stage 1 route)
if you can't get the boss skip to work https://imgur.com/a/47p81tN
i use the snow particles on the ground to get a consistent lineup
if the barnacle spawns in a different spot, you were too close to it (spawn blocked it). if it doesn't work, you were too far away from it
you can skip a horde of many by recording the start and going frame-by-fra...
i got the year right this time
Proud of you
@empty rover 600 cabbages 🎉
3h? You're just standing there man it doesn't seem very hard...
If you stand in the wrong spot you'll either miss the skip or the boss will spawn in a different spot and i assume it's also harder when the boss is smaller or has an unorthodox body, it's kind of a precise trick.
Additionally you have to restart the entire trial if you miss the skip(and it's easy to fail every time you start over, one stray wisp and you have to restart again because it's ethereal chall)
yeah honestly you just stand still and press a button. Seems so easy
This seems very easy, just press one button and wait.
😭
@solemn fiber it's cabbage.mp4 time
3 hundredths of a second isn't that long is it
three entire hours? for a boss skip, like the easiest trick in the game?
A'ight well, you figure out where the boss spawns in a Prismatic Trial without a Cabbage video then
yea zinq, you figure that out .....
If I ever get a 3D printer I’ll send Cabbage a merc figurine
600
Been a while ain't it
So they watch the cabbage
my headphones smell of cabbage now
Are you gonna eat the cabbage?
Do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it
hmm?
What song is that?
driftveil city
thanks brother
@empty rover
@empty rover
truly a life changing experience
being able to use slicing winds is a life changing experience
IM SO HAPPY I GOT LUCKY WITH THE SEED
this was funny because we had the artifact of glass but most items in the first stage were health items like oddly shaped opal and bison steak and with artifact of rebirth you're given a power elixir
woohoo!!! this seed was made for the achievement
@empty rover
@empty rover hi
why doesnt my prismatic leaderboard show names
turn off crossplay
Fun runner seed Mea 👀
I doubt it but you seem to always beat my runner times by 4+ secs
With my route I could only see myself maybe getting sub 48 with a perfect run
just do the thing and win idk
@empty rover
How long have you been doing this? 
For 605*3
For almost 5 years
For the 5 year anniversary she should smile when she eats the cabbage
that'll be Number #609
are you a bot or are you doing this manually?
It's manual
Manual
Cus I'm late sometimes
Also on discord you cant do bot tasks like that without being listed as a bot
You can but your account can be disabled if they catch you
To my understanding, they can flag you as a bot if it interacts with the API directly, but if everything is inputted through keyboard or otherwise normal inputs, it won't detect anything
Has there even been an easier trial setup for this achievement?
What could possibly even be easier lol
Yeah a while ago there was a glass chaos enigma trial the boss stage 1 was a gup horde that insta killed each other the equipment was
then
so free
@empty rover
Kin beetle both stages with glass and command? I had that for mine
command glass double beetle kin is crazy
actually the god run
there needs to be a prismatic thats beating the moon
Thats any of them with sky meadow or helminth stage 1
has sky meadow been in a trial since the DLC updates? I've been checking some things and I think it's been effectively blacklisted from showing up at all
from what I can tell, the intent was just to block it from being the first stage, but due to how stage gen works it effectively gets blocked for 2 stages now
not from what i remember
helminth isn't on the list either, correct?
yea haven't seen either
good to know, thanks for the confirmation!
thanks
unlocked
and Slicing Winds today
Sigma sigma boy
@empty rover
Guptime
apparently a recent update disabled Treeborn Colony (maybe accessible from bazaar?), but not Golden Dieback
not sure what that's about
I think they intended to prevent Pris Trials from letting players access any of the bosses
its impossible idk
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover
@cyan stratus
1:14 and I poured all my heart and soul into it
and I can even see a part where I could save like 3 more seconds which is heartbreaking
could've saved some time by going faster
ngl I started despising the time crystal hitboxes as Railgunner
the crystal is way larger than the hitbox for it
yea it's stupid
I easily did 50+ tries because those hitboxes screwed me over again and again
lmao yeah I'm not surprised at all that I've been overtaken already
btw wouldn't it make more sense to have a seperate scoreboard for each character? Because there are some characters with no mobility like captain or engineer that can't possibly keep up with any of the fast characters
That's exactly what should've been done with the leaderboard. I doubt they're touch prismatics id they don't have to though lol
i just want a scrollable leaderboard
Bro in the cabbage run the first chest in the second run his chest is the little bit cheaper needed to afford after the first crystal
How comes his chest is cheape than mine
NVM
Was prismatic even active enough pre sotv for this to be even considered by hopoo?
Prismatic was never given the chance to be an active gamemode because of how bad the user experience is
I mean Prismatic is fun, but it's really boring after a while
feels like a one and done kind of thing
i mean a lot of people here probably dissent but
theres a couple QoL things they should add to make it more fun for the target audience players
you can also go fight false son if that's easier than a wandering vagrant
@empty rover
THE JELLYFISH OH MY RAIN
At 0:46
5 year anniversary
I gave up on last week's own, is this week any easier?
OK it definitely is
this fr
just lemme see the fastest time while not being top 5 on the board
@north berry
there u go 
DAMNIT NOT NOW
I had #57 at the Golden Dieback/Aphelian Sanctuary prisma trial as myself today
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover
Chef

Cooking
I did in fact cook
Pretty sure that 2:26 is where it caps out in terms of speed for chef
Pretty happy with a 2:26 anyways
27 second difference from first also
I don't think I drop out of top 50
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover
This cabbage guy is scary
Menace
I want to eat the blazing wandering vagrant
Watch Cabbages videos
These ones
He posts them here everytime the trial changes
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
Thanks cabbage
@cyan stratus how do you always undo having merc ethereal so you get it every time?
More like how tf does he not get hit?
I just tried what their doing for a while
I can't get evicerate to stay active long enough to damage the crystal
yes, i usually have to hit the crystal a little bit before i cann use it
@empty rover
o7
FREAKBOB
I am a monster
can confirm
Appreciate you showing the haters chef can be good
I have like 120 hours on him
What do the top 10% get?
literally nothing lol
I'm just a chef player
probably the only one who plays him as most of their playtime since sots released
I've loved him since SOTS 1.0, even with the flaws
I know he's massively flawed though
man
I can't beat 2:29
the primary cooldown being 2.75 combined with roll being 9 seconds
yea
"yea" Doesn't tell us anything TvT
I wonder how hard getting top 10 in prismatic trials is
well top 9 are all actually cheaters so gl lol
How are they cheaters
A time that fast is infeasible for Merc
yeah they ain't beating loader
and every trial is the same, bunch of merc and huntress cheaters at the top, the bandit is a quirky one
you would think if they cheat, have the audacity to use chef
Huh I was moreso asking what they're doing to cheat? Using mods that somehow enable leaderboard? Just flat out cheating?
mods or just spoofs the time
how the hell do i complete a prismatic trial
beat the 2nd stage
congrats
@cyan stratus how do you reset everytime so that you dont keep the merc achievment
you can remove the achievement using realercheatunlocks, or you can go into the file location that profiles are kept, and duplicate a fresh profile that currently does not have it.
ah ok
o7
this trial is easy since you can just facetank the bosses with brooch
This guy always plugging his youtube 
@empty rover
I was watching Cabbage’s video on the current Prismatic Trial, and I noticed how the second stage is Viscous Falls.
Do you guys know if the Radar Scanner can possibly spawn during Prismatic Trials so I could get the Environment Log?
I dont think it can and even if it could, since the seed is always the same for each trial the scanner wouldn't appear if it doesnt appear on the first attempt
I might play this Trial myself just so I can take a look around in Stage 2. Just in case.
…
Artifact of Honour… yikes… 
Now I usually would not agree but top 9 are looking at me funny sooooooo yeahhhhhh top 9 don’t exist
nah top 10 clearly is too 
Why would you ever cheat in the prismatic trail game mode of risk of rain 2 lmfao
To get ethereal obviously
That's so much more effort then just using realercheatunlocks or smth
I was being sarcastic sorry
Oh no, it's my bad lol
I am never gonna unlock Slicing Winds lolol, fml
I couldn't do today trial
Its just confusing why cabbage video have little to no wisp
Then the boss are made out of rocks. Mine is made out metal
I couldn't even damage the boss. The wisp keep healing it
@cyan stratus do you have all the DLCs? It just confusing why the golem isnt above the platform. Wisp spawns faster than you showed. Etc
Prismatic Trials just give you access to DLC content and are more or less the same in RNG execution, so that shouldn't be a problem
What might possibly be happening is that you're taking longer than Cabbage is, which can alter enemy spawning in some points (especially teleports)
Oh GOOD LORD this week's Prismatic is downright diabolical
Tried for 6 hours..cant do it
yea just go faster
Yeah, I ended up saying screw it and just decided not to do this one on Chef
I don't think a fast time on Chef is possible this week.
I just dont get why you have so much better spawns, I even time my runs accordingly, its only 2 second behind you by the broach
2 seconds is quite a bit
@cyan stratus New trial D:
I know, it just seems harder than last one
okay, I got the basics down, just need to perfect it
its actually easier now I know how to deal with them xD
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover hi
I'm sigma
@cyan stratus How do you Expose and use the explosion at the same time?
@cyan stratus ?
Slicing Winds unlocked, thanks Cabbage 😅
You mean using
while doing Eviscerate? Preon has a LONG windup, and he presses it when the cooldown appears, not when it goes off
I think he exposes too no?
I mean all his attacks proc expose, preon is basically just passively charging before he goes up
Eviscerate doesnt proc expose?
oh, that
let me see if he transferred a swing
The only buff I see above the vagrant is the Overloading one, no expose
preon should do a bit of like knockback but that's it
since it's so big of an attack, iirc it just pushes you a bit
sup
oh hey @cyan stratus i was wondering how to jump as merc
spacebar or A
or X
sup
Nah, i refuse to believe unless @cyan stratus Confirms.
Merc has terrible mobility
hey that’s mean 😠
ask;fkhfdgl;kj dgf;ljfdsalk; jdhfg;lkjdfsgfdgs;jklghflk
nothing much how about you
Hey there, I'm looking for advice on today's trial. I'm trying for Mercenary achievement but I can't figure out how to avoid getting hit by both boss. On first map, the one that spawn next to the root always fire before I got the chance to dash away to the plateform. And on the second map, Idk why but everytime I proc Preon and my R (at boss spawn), I loose 90% hp
If you're following the Cabbage video, he uses Eviscerate to abuse I-frames to dodge it
I don’t like rebirth on prismatic trials because it forces me to use my legendaries
I had runic lens on rebirth and it just ruined my run
Yeah that artifact should not be in prismatics
or it should ignore stored item and just do random
@scenic surge https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlUcuPF34bI
just do nothing and win
@empty rover
Hey youre one of the guys that played with Disputed Origin in the speedruns right?
Yup
Yooooo thats dope asf man
Same with zinq and cabbage in here as well 
OH YEAH cabbage too, yall are like celebrities to me lmao
Glad you enjoy the races o7
How does the artifact of rebirth work for prismatic trials?
it uses whatever item you offered in prime meridian. if you didn't, it gives you an item consistent for that seed
Ok thanks
!!
i feel that evis now has a shorter range
it does
Oh ok I thought I was crazy
I'm trying to do the current trial, but no hitting as a character I'm not that reliable at Is horrible
Boy am I glad for that one seed with Glass, Command, & Kin (it was just a bunch of Beetles).
Getting Ethereal would’ve been a significantly bigger pain were it not for that…
just do anything and win
@empty rover
Is there a way to keep using an item for the artifact of rebirth without doing a full run?
Kind of. You can create multiple profiles before doing a run and just switch profiles each attempt to maintain the item iirc
i found this, assuming you have access to mods
iirc mods disable trials, but also iirc there was one that enabled them just with no leaderboard
that was ages ago though, so who knows if it's still up to date
For real
Ok, thanks, I think I’ll just keep doing it with the given common item then
cabbage.mp4
#616
I got in my head that I somehow missed it
Nope
Perfectly on time
let her eat the food she enjoys
set your profile to read-only
restart the game after every try
3rd rebirth trial in a row...... So lame
I would like Prismatic Trials more if sotv wasn't force enabled 🤔
Ok grandpa lets get you back to bed
I played the Prismatic Trial today and I found it really fun but I died due to stuff around a Void Seed
Yeah and the seed would be entirely different if sotv wasnt there
they should randomize the active dlcs and I'll do every one that only has sots
got the beetle queen boop lol
that acrid is so skilled
I would play this one but it has sotv enabled... 😔

My ideal Prismatic trial ❤️
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover
Nooo i missed #500
By about 351 days apparently
still waiting on the update that makes sots only Prismatic Trials 
What
Dont pay attention to flashi's shitposting
How many times are you gonna say the same thing
hey man I don't like sotv that much 😔
I have consistently been playing with it disabled since sots release
except for multiplayer because ig ppl like sotv
ok good for you
I was wondering what route is used to get a below one minute time? My current route I don't think has that amount of time save
Probably cheaters tbh
Also, is there any way to make the void barnacle spawns more consistent for the second boss? It feels like it’s randomly chosen between 2 and 4
Might not be. At least Ruddy isn't
Hmm yeah 
They are not cheaters lol
look like cheaters to me idk
all of these are racers idk what u mean cheaters
Nah 4 is def cheating 
for sure
look I didnt sleep all night
If you ever see me on a global leaderboard assume I'm cheating, furthermore if you see me on a global leaderboard either it's not actually me or you need to get your eyes checked
the one in third place is definitely cheating
So what is a route to get an under on minute time? With my current way of doing the trial I enter the second stage around 37s
I think I’m reaching the second teleporter slowly
2 vase
How does it refresh quick enough?
ayo racing ?
freequip, press USE and PICKUP at the same frame when grabbing the vase
Thanks, I did not know that was a thing
its a very prismatic only tech
common tech
@scenic surge no
lmfao
@cyan stratus nvm
@scenic surge your time is so high there's a random merc between us
plenty of time to save
Got 3 barnacles. What an idiot
Such cursed stage progression lmao
smh this guy got a crowbar
any crowbar
I love watching this battle here lol
Very entertaining
...
@scenic surge https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K65RpLXI5nU
haven't uploaded a prismatic speedrun in a while, despite that being the actual goal of the gamemode. with a while, i mean over a year. i chose to run this one because there was actual competition on it, although this run was more than enough to beat everyone despite being pretty suboptimal.
don't see an update on steam but assume the seed changed
gotta get prismatic record back to newt strats
finally, the button is bigger now. thought they'd forgotten about the trials
I caved 😔
I want to play this gamemode more often but it still force enables sotv and I don't like that
wait what
is the timer for the current trial affected by timezones

hell if I know
No you just have to refresh it :P
also there's something funny about cabbage nearly halving his time between our two screenshots
skull emoji
Dammit I just shaved 30 seconds only to get bumped down to 5th
I realized I actually really like Loader's alt skills
i am so good at this game frfr
yea i'm content with this
yeah im content with this
Ive only done prismatic trials once to get the achievement and i didnt really understand what was happening, what is a prismatic trial
Is it like a speedrun?
Yup. Find the fastest route 
Oh dope, i think ill def try that once i get the new dlc
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover
Funny how Cabbage even has a shorter time in this screenshot despite having just said "yea i'm content with this"
I got so demoted lmao, if I didn't have school soon I'd be on the optimization grind
What Loader build do y'all use for Prismatic Trials?
Or this one rather
Just cut my rank in half (it was 53)
I think it's usually 1212
Just got a 2:41 with that loadout
I should probably try it a few more times so I can get used to it
ok I got a 2:23 but I'm not really vibing with the build
I keep grabbing the watch from the stage 1 multishop but I'm gonna try itemless
Glacial Geep tp is kinda screwing me over
I made a new route that incorporated the Shrine of Shaping and bumped my time down to a 2:18 because I kept dying to the second tp
YOOO 2:10 WHOOOOOO
@next pelican
by the way
because of the most recent update
if you hit newt, go to bazaar, go through and immediately exit void fields you can skip stage 2
although you can also just punch stage 2

Gotta take wr newt strats back zinq
At least you told me this prior to me giving up sub 2 minute and doing a normal run
newt strats wr might be gone now
cuz like the last one was basically the most optimal
and huntress already won
the eventual approach of the easier huntress strats has killed loader wr
Yeah gotta get super lucky and there's a time limit on newt strats being a thing 
who know maybe vields’ll be a stage
yes
otherwise that would be free and really bad lmao
“optimal speedrun aaah” where you farm ghors tome xp in the bazaar for 8 actual human years
HELL YEAH
I'm satisfied with this
I'd have to find some way to save 36 seconds if I wanted to get 9th so that ain't happening
The amount of crashing out I'm gonna do if I open the game and see that my rank is >10
Is actually insane
You have to be FUCKING KIDDING ME
you'll get a 1:06 i believe in you
Rip
i mean that sucks but did you not expect anyone to overtake any of the people in the top ten
See I'm hitting blue portal at 1:08
I am NOT taking my place back 😭
I must be playing Loader wrong
I haven't watched any guides so all my pbs have been me spitballing
I hit the blue portal so that I leave stage 1 at between 40-43 seconds
36
I'm just kinda inexperienced with Loader
I can't even imagine myself beating my own score
Much less getting back to 10th
Any tips on getting mercenary's special? I always struggle with not getting hit
35
check the pinned video by Cabbage
Ty
@scenic surge
What artifact is this
Delusion
I gotta be honest I thought the big shape in the middle of Delusion's symbol was the egg
yeah i got that
also why should casual players be expected to memorize the symbols of every artifact
Idk but I feel like Devotion = Egg is kinda obvious
Delusion seems incredibly forgotten in general
yeah the lemurian artifact is obviously gonna be an egg
just like how sacrifice is so obviously a slice of swiss cheese
and kin is clearly gonna be the symbol of the Terminids from Helldivers

10 hours for this garbage
Insane time difference
void fields are back.. can't say i missed them too much
this run is honestly not good but i'm satisfied enough with it given how rng-dependent this trial is. hitting blue portal and tp at the same time sends me to normal stage 2 like 80% of the time. the route is also very precise and hard for me since i'm not great at loader movement (the firs...
lost about 1.3 seconds on s1 so still very very bad run
wow they reimplemented void fields... i'm not sure if this is a good thing
this run is not my best work, but given how much rng there is in the portal im satisfied. hitting tp and blue portal is faster but 79.99% of the time it sends me to normal stage 2. the route is difficult and requires a lot of precision, and i'm not so great at loader mov...
ayo wrong thumbnail
This is acceptable
Wait where am I 
mb man
the bazaar is literally the same as i always did
also that wasnt best s1 but best s1 is cooldown locked so idk
low 32s is pb
we chill
random question tho what do you do different, grapple at start?
got a cool bazaar earlier too but in void fields i missed the first grapple because of the fog lmao
yeah
32 is common, getting to shop w/it isn't
2 brooches and a gas makes you invincible just sit there and win
@empty rover
Only 2 artifacts this seed?
interesting
Okay I'm gonna need to do a considerable amount of route optimization, a 2:52 is not gonna cut it
But hey at least I can see Cabbage
My stage 1 is SUPER weak and my stage 2 just needs a touch up
goobo rng 
👁️
I love how I keep popping Goobo and it feels so useless for the Vagrant fight lmao
The little dude is not doing much
Is that with Vields?
or just good routing
Oh sweet, okay I learned how to Goobo
Maybe Thunder gauntlet is actually the play here
oh yeah i totally forgot about vields
I tried a few attempts at it
either I suck or it isn't very viable for this one
The vields spawn is on the opposite side from the portal
Great, a 3 second time save 
I totally suck
How am I so bad with Charged Gauntlet
Sure the mobility with it is god tier but the tp boss fights are so ungodly slow
I might just do a singleplayer run and leave myself on 15 until I get demoted
Never mind I got demoted to 16
Cabbage how are u doing one shot on the time crystals?
Are you playing as Loader or doing Ethereal?
Ethereal
Oh idk anything about Merc it's been ages since my 100%
help im washed, how do I beat xenon? https://youtu.be/MSzlePR7GJo
The tradition of Prismatic Trials being broken in some way every single update remains strong to this day! Randomly decided to do this one even though I dislike the Void Fields meta. Very chill and easy trial this time, which is incredibly rare.
MUL-T is faster for this trial by a decent margin. Biggest potential time save would be getting a cr...
Yeah this is kinda what I expected ok...
@vestal inlet Hi washed! maybe you can beat xenon using this super cool stage 1 strategy?
Why did you hit newt
You went through teleporter
not intentional, if you hit tp and newt there is effectively a 50/50 of just going to the wrong stage and losing, but theres also a guarantee the teleporter animation saves 1-2 seconds
i think you can force the stage by killing an enemy in the same manner that verst does with the beetle after hitting the tp, but im not 100% on why it works
Interesting
it's intentional, activating 2 exits triggers 2 countdown timers which makes gold count down faster, the enemy kill at 0 gold delays the first exit timer which makes the destination predictable
fwiw it might be possible to consistently control the destination by timing the portal between specific countdown ticks (eg. between 1->2/3->4 gold countdown)
at the very least, activating portal when the gold countdown reaches 0 will consistently end up in bazaar
i did this during the last trial and it worked pretty well, but i think the interval between activating the portal and the teleporter may be hardware dependant like it was with CE unrestricted speedruns
kind of wish it wasnt a thing to be honest
I suspect it's only hardware-specific when the timers overlap exactly (frame perfect synchronization on tick countdowns), but honestly can't say that I know for sure
not a fan of how it works either
What the speedrun
He is doing tech called Expose Transferring
Essentially, the animation of the 3rd hit of Merc’s primary can be cancelled midway with another attack, and the hitbox will still be active
And so, using this, you can combo that with his other moves to deal more damage in a shorter period of time, and reset your cooldowns faster
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover hello there
Greed joker

SLAVES TO POWER
Ok you sir, you had a beautiful run
Okay so, I’ve been playing for a long time. I’ve beat every challenge except ethereal, mainly because I don’t really like playing mercenary that much. and I finally decided its time to 100% the game. What are the tips and tricks for completing ethereal?
I notice artifact of rebirth is turned on for this week, can I go place an item that would be advantageous and it will carry over to the trial?
Check
That one mercenary achievement is gonna make me crash out once I go for it lol
Hopefully there's a good trial for it soon
Lock in, you got this gang
Thanks
You know it won't heal if you keep attacking it right?
I think the force field it makes at low hp is the issue
In which case the counter would be getting closer to it or dealing damage fast enough after it heals so it doesn’t block again
Ah
I forgot how annoying they were because of how frequently (literally always) I play with sotv disabled
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover PinningHat time
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit

@empty rover
Woah that newt altar into a shrine of chance was smooth 😳
Love your profile picture btw
@wraith cipher got better one
@delicate grove @vestal inlet too
wr? 

Congrats on wr
rank 1
I hate wisps after this
@empty rover hello
I'm sorry wtf do you mean 2 seconds?????
cheaters
its very easy
What is the lore behind prismatic trials?
So a vegetable
And like a hat I think
Found a crystal then they were like, hey let's break this, but lets like do it absurdly fast with incredibly precise movements
whats the point of that
Idk
how is everyone?
another wr, holy
wow this guy must be really good
does this seed have rallypoint delta?
8th 
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover it is time.
THE GLOWING METHEORITE META IS INSANE
wr ggs
Looks like someone else has wr this time
Are y'all still using that stupid vields bug for sub 1:30s?
Or are there just really good normal routes
if its railgunner odds are its not vields, only loader can effectively use it
How can Railgunner of all people go that fast
A bunch of combined self knockback
She has like no movement though
You propel yourself forward with the mines, then use cryocharge to give yourself an additional boost and use the primary to get that last bit of added momentum
Combining all those results in far higher movement than you think
🤨 🤥
Rp?
Roleplay
nah I mean I genuinely 100% undeniably despise sotv to an unfathomable degree unconceptualized by even the great philosophers of ancient times
this ain't no rp
Ok but nobody cares so don't flood this chat with it like every other chat, thank you 
if you're gonna hate on anything hate that they removed the frog portal
i personally wont stand for it
They did what?
no way
if
was gone we would've heard about it sooner
i literally just used it what
what are you saying to me
thank u all guys for saying good bye to me
thats the best gift
man theres 4 guys are CN on the top of the borad
yo thats so COOL
come and get us LOL
hmm
Holy tech
weird
don't need the extra money for stage 2, also i was tired so i played slow and bad
@empty rover
Seeing a Halcyonite in an Ethereal thumbnail is a sight
how on earth did you pull that off?
its cabbage
there was one he couldn't beat that was 22 minutes lol
he's done almost all the rest of em, not being able to beat like 1 or 2 tmk
what were you expecting
@empty rover
April Fools? Nah, Ethereal Duels
The prismatic trials are impossible
I’m stuck on fighting the overloaded alloy worship eyeball thing
I’ve been hitting it for 15 minutes
I hate this game
did you watch the cabbage video
This is hype
this is new cabbage lore
normally reserved for special milestones
anyone have tips for the merc unlock outside of the cabbage vid?
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah😭
i need tips or something what is this bs
so many Spite and Soul Prismatic Trials recently oml
Only do it when its a good prismatic trial, sometimes they just suck, it took me like 6 different trials and multiple hours before I got ethereal, it takes time cuz the achievement is low key super hard
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover
can you complete the mercernary test with the artifact of glass?
Yes
i just did it but didn't get it tho :(
is there any way i would've taken like 1 or 2 damage from something silly
Are you sure you didnt take any damage? Even the slightest bit of fall damage would require you to restart
yeah i played super careful, I'll do it again but i don't think i did
When you break the purple crystals they also send out a small aoe that can damage you
You could try increasing the size of the visual cue for taking damage
Should be near the bottom of the gameplay section in the settings
second time worked :)
Congrats 🥳
thanks <3

it has a set seed
this trial is easy since all you have to do is not get hit
@empty rover
I hate artifact of rebirth in prismatic trials
I have to go do false son with command for every attempt if I want it to be optimal
I AM AWAKE LMAO
I managed to improve my time with loader but keep getting small time losses
I went from 300 to 31st place once I locked in
lemurian hell
what is prismatic trials i have 300hrs and never even touched it
just do the thing and win idk
@empty rover
it's a rainstorm run with a global seed that changes every day

❤️
